    This was flagged earlier in the week by a poster.  Can’t remember who it was.  From memory they said it was only a minor tweak.  Hopefully it’ll only be a couple of weeks as opposed to 4...

    Does that mean your available for selection?

    It’s not this week that hurts so much but next. Usually hammies aren’t a one weeker so it may go to two, then it’s a flight to WA which isn’t great for them either. Unless it’s the tinniest hammy ever I think he misses a few.

    He played out the game so it can't be that serious.

    The cynical part of me thinks that that we are coming up with an excuse for resting him without appearing to be complacent against a weak side.

    I strained my hammy earlier this year and missed 2 weeks,. If you do everything right in terms of rehab and conditioning then you can make it back in 2 weeks instead of your usual 3-4..

    My biggest issue is why did they send him out again when they knew he strained earlier on...?‍♂️

    Our medical team annoys me..

    If it had to happen, I'd rather it now than in a few weeks time. 

    Rest up Milkshake. Time to unleash AVB!

    We have been told all year that if they have the slightest niggle, they go to the rehab group. Funny how that continually proves to be an untrue piece of information.

    Yeap, not sure he will be back under 4 weeks. Can’t wait for the review into training side of things.

    It's difficult to go into rehab in the middle of a match which if we lost it would likely mean we miss the 8.  A judgement might have been made that what you have been told all year (really?) is out of date.

    Dangerfield missed 2 weeks (the week after JLT and round 1 this year) with a very minor strain so I''m using that as a guide. So he'll surely miss the crucial Sydney game which is a pity.

    Unless Smiley Misson is bull crapping about it only being 'minor', expect him back for round 22 V's WCE.

    So lets risk a player injury to try and make finals?

    No thanks! We tried that with Jack Viney and it backfired terribly. Hes lucky he didn't tear his hamstring!

    Should have put him on ice when they first alerted the problem.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?
